Background: Locomotion problems in Parkinson's syndrome are still a research and treatment difficulty. With the recent introduction of brain stimulation or neuromodulation equipment that is sufficient to monitor activity in the brain using electrodes placed on the scalp, new locomotion investigations in patients having the capacity to move freely have sprung up.
Objective: This study aimed to find rat models and locomotion-connected neuronal indicators and use them all over a closed-loop system to enhance the future and present treatment options available for Parkinson's disease.
Methods: Various publications on locomotor abnormalities, Parkinson's disease, animal models, and other topics have been searched using several search engines, such as Google Scholar, Web of Science, Research Gate, and PubMed.
Results: Based on the literature, we can conclude that animal models are used for further investigating the locomotion connectivity deficiencies of many biological measuring devices and attempting to address unanswered concerns from clinical and non-clinical research. However, translational validity is required for rat models to contribute to the improvement of upcoming neurostimulation-based medicines. This review discusses the most successful methods for modelling Parkinson's locomotion in rats.
Conclusion: This review article has examined how scientific clinical experiments lead to localised central nervous system injuries in rats, as well as how the associated motor deficits and connection oscillations reflect this. This evolutionary process of therapeutic interventions may help to improve locomotion- based treatment and management of Parkinson's syndrome in the upcoming years.

Background: The brain-gut-microbiome (BGM) axis is a communication network through which the brain and gastrointestinal microbiota interact via neural, hormonal, immune, and gene expression mechanisms. Gut microbiota dysbiosis is thought to contribute to neurocognitive disorders, including perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND), and to various metabolic abnormalities. Recently, we reported that sevoflurane induces neurocognitive deficits in exposed rats as well as their future offspring, with male offspring being particularly affected (intergenerational PND).

Background: Peripheral nerve injury commonly results in pain and long-term disability for patients. Recovery after in-continuity stretch or crush injury remains inherently unpredictable. However, surgical intervention yields the most favorable outcomes when performed shortly after injury.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by impairments in motor control following the degeneration of dopamine-producing neurons located in the substantia nigra pars compacta. Environmental pesticides such as Paraquat (PQ) and Maneb (MB) contribute to the onset of PD by inducing oxidative stress (OS). This study evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of moderate physical activity (PA) on both motor and non-motor symptoms in a Wistar rat model of Paraquat and Maneb (PQ/MB) induced PD.

The neuroprotective potential of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), potent anticancer drugs, was verified against various neurodegenerative insults, but not Huntington's disease (HD). These promising outcomes were due to their ability to modulate various intracellular signalling pathways. Hence, the current study aimed to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of lapatinib and pazopanib in the 3-nitropropionic (3-NP)-induced HD model in rats.

Ischemic stroke (IS) has high morbidity/mortality with limited treatments. This study screened core copper homeostasis-related genes in IS and validated their function as precise intervention targets. Human IS gene chip data were retrieved from GEO, and copper homeostasis genes from multiple databases.
